The Scent of Rumduol is a modern day tale of stolen childhoods; of children forced to survive the exigencies of a world epitomized by poverty, violence, drugs, child exploitation, and sexual abuse. It is the story of four orphans whose lives touch, and are touched, by others - including a teenage prostitute, a former Khmer Rouge guard, and a disillusioned aid worker - in ways nobody could ever have imagined.
It is a story of hope, resolve, love, karma, and, ultimately, of triumph over adversity.
